McLaren's poor performance is down to a "lack of leadership"

Zak Brown believes a 'lack of consistent leadership' is part of the reason the team performed so poorly last season.

It is being reported that management issues are what led to the team's dismal results.

"Ultimately what got us here this year started five years ago. This year’s problem is years in the works," Brown said to crash.net.

McLaren faced a number of changes in personnel over the past few years and this must impact the way the team works and operates.

The British team will be hoping that they can return to winning ways in 2019.
